how much do you spend on favors?

This is the first year that DD is having a birthday party and I am curious as to what people generally spend on favors? DD will be 4.

Thanks.

not too much. I usually pick up a few things from Fivebelow or Party City, whatever fits the birthday theme.

Re: how much do you spend on favors?

Depends on the amount of kids and what age. For their 1st party which was close friends and family I spent more. For classmates parties with tons of kids I spent less, but I still like something significant they can really use. No cheap tiny toys or candy. I did big water shooters that were $3 each and a huge hit. Got books for each kid about $2 each and put it in a shovel and pail $1 each and threw in sidewalk chalk (4 pieces 50 cents each).

I have also done hooded towels that wound up being $6 each (using BBB coupons).

So all that said I'd say anywhere between $3 - $6/$7.

I like to stay at about $5 per child. I always end up with a lot of kids so budget needs to be factored in as well. Ive always done well with doing useful items aa favors. I know i prefer it as well as a parent instead of a bag of cheap toys im going to toss.

$0

I quit doing favors.

Yes, it's not the popular thing to do, but I hate favors, always toss them when I get them & stopped giving them.
